SANY introduces electrically powered port machinery to European market

SANY is now bringing its electrically powered port machinery to the European market. The company has already 100 SANY empty container handlers and 40 reach stackers with electric drives in use in China and Southeast Asia.

The European Union has set the ambitious goal of cutting greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030. A key role in achieving this is played by the transport and industrial sectors. In this context, the type of drive plays a major role when purchasing new port machinery.

Moreover, with the use of regenerative electricity, a completely emission-free operation becomes possible with fully electrically driven machinery, said SANY.

The machinery in Europe is scheduled for delivery in the first half of the current year. In addition to its fully electrically driven machinery, SANY also offers a hybrid reach stacker. Its two drive types (combustion engine and simple hydro-pneumatic drive) contribute to a 20% reduction in emissions, according to SANY.

Furthermore, all SANY mobile port machinery that is equipped with a Stage V engine can run on biofuels in addition to conventional fuels.

Jürgen Keller, product manager at SANY Europe, commented, “Many customers are aware they need to change their machinery purchases quickly if they are to significantly reduce CO2 emissions across their fleet by 2030 and comply with EU requirements for reduced emissions. At customer level, I expect to see more discussions about this in the next 6-12 months.”
